Bram Stoker's characterization of Dracula is an Eastern European guy with dark skin who has a long, hooked nose, is rich, is very protective of his money, and hangs around with gypsies (i.e. other Eastern European thieves who also don't have a stable home). It isn't hard to read that as a stereotypical Jew (especially for an Irish writer who wouldn't have necessarily known exact details about Romania, where Transylvania is) and the tale as a whole about a fear of blood mixing. There are certainly other critiques though - some would say Dracula represents a fear of women becoming sexually empowered and running off with another man.

Also, I may be wrong on this so you may feel free to correct me, but I believe the the reference to Dracula and Turkey is related to Dracula fighting a Turkish count and winning his name there or something similar, and is more likely a reference to the story of Vlad the Impaler, from whom inspiration for Dracula is derived.

Yeah, I posted Turkish when I meant Romanian because posting before bedtime is a great move.

Anyway the idea seems to be hinging on Stoker not knowing poo poo about the area, which is totally wrong because the dude did his research. The threat was absolutely one of the dirty foreign invaders coming in and messing with our women and all, but I don't think anyone originally mistook it as Jews so much as just those filthy near east men with their swarthy foreign ways.

I guess it's relative. I don't think the United States would be ready for the amount of socialistic tendencies we have here in Sweden, for instance. But I'm sure he's totally super socialist by American standards.

My impression of Bernie is that he's the only American candidate* that could be a European candidate.

*Actually-have-a-shot candidates, not just "submitted his name to be a candindate".

Yeah, his politics are on par with the Canadian NDP, who are a legitimate political party and not just some wacky fringe group.

Yes, probably. But it also means that there is more than one person who is not only aroused by dogs, but several people who apparently experience so little shame that they are willing to cheer a stranger over it.
